      Act Now in Response to Proposed Layoffs


        BREAKING: NTEU Members Act Now in Response to Proposed Layoffs 

      Today, the administration released guidance directing agencies to start preparations for potential reductions-in-force (RIF) at multiple agencies. We must fight back together against this administration’s outrageous and destructive plans to initiate layoffs. This plan is an attack against the entire federal workforce and the people who depend on their skills and expertise. It is an illegal attempt to break the U.S. government and to stop federal employees from doing their work for the American public. Act Now

      As a member of NTEU, immediately contact your members of Congress, today and every day, and demand that they take action to protect our government and the federal workforce. 
      In addition, we have provided sample language for you to spread the word about what’s happening. Please copy, paste, and send our message below.  Share it far and wide to friends, family, neighbors, and others in our community, and encourage them to do the same

      [Copy and paste the message below and spread the word!]

      #################################################################

      Government Services and America’s Federal Workforce are Under Assault 
      The current administration is threatening to make even more cuts to vital services for the American people. Take action and reach out to your members of Congress to let them know that an assault on the federal workforce is an assault on each and every one of us—our environment, our food, our water, our small businesses, our economic independence, our tax system and so much more!

      ################################################################

      As events unfold, we will be back in touch with updates and guidance. 

      Remember, solidarity is our strength. Fighting together, we will prevail.??

      Performance Plans: some points to consider

      Article 36 of the Union Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) covers the development of and revision to performance plans. A few major points:
      1. Revisions to performance plans are always prospective. Changes cannot be retroactive.
      2. If a performance plan has been in place for at least 90 days, there must be an interim performance evaluation covering the period when the original plan was in effect.  That interim evaluation must be given appropriate weight in the summary rating for the entire year.
      3. The revised performance plan applies just to the time remaining in the rating period, not for an entire year.
      4. The criteria and principles that Article 36 specifies, apply to any/every revision to a performance plan.
